A rare cause of headache-the importance of a tissue diagnosis and perseverance
A 64 year old diabetic hypertensive milkman presented in September 2011 with 4 months progressive constant right frontotemporal retro–orbital pain. It was worse at night affecting sleep with slight right field blurring and later vomiting. Full examination including blood pressure was normal with acuities 6/9. Tension type headache was considered. Initial brain CT was reported as normal. With concern about giant cell arteritis steroids were trialled although ESR was 8 and CRP 25 with no other clinical features: pain reduction was short–lived and temporal artery biopsy negative. Symptoms worsened despite analgesi...

Diagnosis of an aortic valvular lesion
From the question on page 719 Clinical introduction A 59-year-old woman with hypertension presented with right-sided weakness and vision loss. Her vital signs were normal; cardiopulmonary exam was significant for a systolic and diastolic murmur. MRI of the brain showed multiple chronic bilateral infarctions, and Doppler ultrasound revealed acute left lower extremity deep vein thrombosis. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to determine cardioembolic source of stroke was significant only for severe aortic valve regurgitation. To assess for cardiac vegetations, transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was performed (figure 1...

Cardiovascular Disease Among Survivors of Adult-Onset Cancer: A Community-Based Retrospective Cohort Study.
CONCLUSION: The magnitude of subsequent CVD risk varies according to cancer subtype and by the presence of CVRFs. Overall survival in survivors who develop CVD is poor, emphasizing the need for targeted prevention strategies for individuals at highest risk of developing CVD.

Summary: International Kidney Cancer Symposium
Conclusions:  Ideal ischemia time is 20-25 minutes or less improves short and long term renal function.  >25 minutes carried 5 year risk of new onset stage 4 CKD No differences on GFR for cold vs. warm ischemia times Preoperative GFR and the percent of kidney preserved was a better predictor of post op GFR.  No ischemia preserves renal function better than warm. Longer cold ischemia times were equivalent to shorter warm ischemia times. Quality and quantity of the remaining kidney is associated with ultimate renal function.

A Point ‐based Prediction Model for Cardiovascular Risk in Orthotopic Liver Transplantation: The CAR‐OLT Score
Conclusion: The point‐based CAR‐OLT risk score can identify patients at risk for CVD complications after OLT surgery (available at: www.carolt.us). This score may be useful for identification of candidates for further risk stratification or other management strategies to improve CVD outcomes after OLT. This article is protected by copyright.

Associations between Greenness, Impervious Surface Area, and Nighttime Lights on Biomarkers of Vascular Aging in Chennai, India
Conclusion: Greenness, ISA, and NTL were associated with increased SBP, DBP, and cPP, and with reduced FMD, suggesting a possible additional EVA pathway for the relationship between urbanization and increased CVD prevalence in urban India. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP541 Received: 20 May 2016 Revised: 03 January 2017 Accepted: 23 January 2017 Published: 02 August 2017 Address correspondence to K.J.

Urine Arsenic and Arsenic Metabolites in U.S. Adults and Biomarkers of Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Endothelial Dysfunction: A Cross-Sectional Study
Conclusion: In a cross-sectional study of U.S. adults, we observed some positive associations of uAs and toenail As concentrations with biomarkers potentially relevant to CVD pathogenesis and inflammation, and evidence of a higher capacity to metabolize inorganic As was negatively associated with a marker of oxidative stress. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP2062 Received: 14 April 2017 Revised: 13 November 2017 Accepted: 15 November 2017 Published: 15 December 2017 Address correspondence to S.F.

Unusual Techniques for Preserving Surgical and Oncologic Safety in Hepatectomy of Advanced Adrenal Malignancy with Vena Cava and Liver Invasion
We report herein three cases of major hepatectomy with IVC invasion and discuss several surgical tips.Patients and MethodsFrom March 2011 to February 2014, we retrospectively reviewed three cases of adrenal malignancy with liver and IVC invasion. Based on the severity of the malignant tumor, each case illustrates a different method to address surgical complications and maintain oncologic safety. Case 1: A 34-year-old woman was diagnosed with adrenocortical tumor during medical examination. Tumor invaded the right lobe of the liver and very close to the IVC. Fortunately, there was little thrombosis inside the IVC; we perfor...

Diagnosis and Treatment of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Lower Lip: Case Report
A 67-year-old woman attended the stomatology clinic complaining of a wound on the lip, painful, with an evolution of 3 months. During this period, she was treated by a dermatologist for herpes simplex, but without resolution. Anamnesis indicated systemic arterial hypertension and previous stroke; she denied smoking or performing activities causing sun exposure. A physical examination revealed an exophytic ulcer on the lower lip with a crusted necrotic background, indurated rounded borders, soft base, 1.5  cm in size, and loss of the mucocutaneous line.
